Here we studied the entire Atlantic Forest hotspot to investigate whether the effect of different environmental predictors depends on the phylogenetic extension and the biogeographical history of different Atlantic Forest sectors. We used occurrence data of 3,183 plant species with arboreal or arborescent habits. We reconstructed climatic stability across 120,000 years using the Random Forest method.

Article Synopsis
  • - Physical activity (PL) is crucial for maintaining good health, preventing diseases like obesity and cardiovascular issues, and improving overall life satisfaction (LS), especially in young people.
  • - A study with 135 children aged 8-12 in Extremadura found that normal-weight children exhibit higher levels of PL compared to their overweight and obese peers, with significant differences in physical competence scores.
  • - The results indicate a strong positive correlation between PL and LS, and an inverse relationship between PL and Body Mass Index (BMI), suggesting that higher levels of PL and LS are linked to normal weight in children.

A statistical indicator for dynamic stability, known as the Υ indicator, is used to gauge the stability and, hence, detect approaching tipping points of simulation data from a reduced five-box model of the North Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) exposed to a time-dependent hosing function. The hosing function simulates the influx of fresh water due to the melting of the Greenland ice sheet and increased precipitation in the North Atlantic. The Υ indicator is designed to detect changes in the memory properties of the dynamics and is based on fitting auto-regressive moving-average models in a sliding window approach to time series data.

Introduction: Fibromyalgia (FM) translates into a reduction in the quality of life of people who suffer from it, being a chronic disease of unknown etiology. One of the most widespread treatments includes the combination of patient education, along with other components. At the educational level, the Fibromyalgia Knowledge Questionnaire (FKQ) is a tool that assesses knowledge of fibromyalgia.
